Selected to participate in a two-week research project, a group of men agree to play inmates and guards in a simulation of life within a state prison. But as the 24 volunteers slip deeper into their roles, power corrupts, fears escalate and the experiment spins horribly out of control. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)

At least in the first one the Japanese had manners, but in Ip Man 2 the Westerners are portrayed as spineless assholes who deserve nothing but defeat. The ridiculous epilogue only confirmed the fifth.

The Experiment is a remake of a decent (though not excellent) German film that I watched a long time ago, so I will refrain from a closer comparison. It has several problems, like the original, it’s very predictable, you can accurately figure out what will happen next, even if you don’t know the original or, unconsciously, the real events from 1971. Then you have the unlikeable characters, even Adrien Brody, whom I usually don’t mind, here feels very unpleasant. And the third and most important complaint: if you can’t believe the development of the characters in a psychological thriller, that’s bad. If it was an original project, I’d go easier, but under these circumstances I can’t give it more than two stars – a remake that’s not better than the original, it’s not good.

Dumb from head to toe, and yet at the end it pretends to have a "big idea".
